[SOLVED] tmux bash completion

Kolibry · 2014-10-19 10:17:40

Hey,

Looking through internet, I didn't find any solution. I want to be able to hit Tab on a terminal to complete my commands, like I do a million times a day.

Except it doesn't work on tmux, Tab just does nothing at all.

Here is my tmux.conf :

#Make zsh default shell to use
   # set-option -g default-shell /bin/zsh

# use UTF8
    set -g utf8
    set-window-option -g utf8 on

    # make tmux display things in 256 colors
    set -g default-terminal "screen-256color"

    # set scrollback history 
    set -g history-limit 3000

    # shorten command delay
    set -sg escape-time 1

    # set window and pane index to 1 (0 by default)
    set-option -g base-index 1
    setw -g pane-base-index 1

    # reload ~/.tmux.conf
    bind -n C-q source-file ~/.tmux.conf \; display "Reloaded!"

    # Select and open URL
    bind -n C-u run tmux-url-select

    
    unbind-key Tab
    
    # split window horizontally and vertically
    bind -n C-v split-window -h
    bind -n C-h split-window -v

    # Make the current window the first window
    bind -n C-T swap-window -t 1

    # map Vi movement keys as pane movement keys
    bind -n C-Left select-pane -L
    bind -n C-Down select-pane -D
    bind -n C-Up select-pane -U
    bind -n C-Right select-pane -R

    # and use C-h and C-l to cycle thru panes
    bind -n C-o select-window -t :-
    bind -n C-i select-window -t :+

    # resize panes using PREFIX H, J, K, L
    bind -n C-N resize-pane -L 5
    bind -n C-J resize-pane -D 5
    bind -n C-K resize-pane -U 5
    bind -n C-L resize-pane -R 5

    # explicitly disable mouse control
    setw -g mode-mouse off
    set -g mouse-select-pane on
    set -g mouse-resize-pane on
    set -g mouse-select-window on

    # ---------------------
    # Copy & Paste
    # ---------------------
    # provide access to the clipboard for pbpaste, pbcopy
    #set-option -g default-command "reattach-to-user-namespace -l zsh"
    set-window-option -g automatic-rename on

    # use vim keybindings in copy mode
    setw -g mode-keys vi

    # setup 'v' to begin selection as in Vim
    bind-key -t vi-copy v begin-selection
    bind-key -t vi-copy y copy-pipe "reattach-to-user-namespace pbcopy"

    # update default binding of 'Enter' to also use copy-pipe
    unbind -t vi-copy Enter
    bind-key -t vi-copy Enter copy-pipe "reattach-to-user-namespace pbcopy"

    bind y run 'tmux save-buffer - | reattach-to-user-namespace pbcopy '
    bind C-y run 'tmux save-buffer - | reattach-to-user-namespace pbcopy '

    # ----------------------
    # set some pretty colors
    # ----------------------
    #set pane colors - hilight the active pane
    set-option -g pane-border-fg colour235 #base02
    set-option -g pane-active-border-fg red #base01

    # colorize messages in the command line
    set-option -g message-bg black #base02
    set-option -g message-fg brightred #orange

    # ----------------------
    # Status Bar
    # -----------------------
    set-option -g status off                # turn the status bar on
    set -g status-utf8 on                  # set utf-8 for the status bar
    set -g status-interval 5               # set update frequencey (default 15 seconds)
    set -g status-justify centre           # center window list for clarity
    # set-option -g status-position top    # position the status bar at top of screen

    # visual notification of activity in other windows
    setw -g monitor-activity off
    set -g visual-activity off

    # set color for status bar
    set-option -g status-bg colour0
    set-option -g status-fg yellow #yellow
    set-option -g status-attr dim 

    # set window list colors - red for active and cyan for inactive
    set-window-option -g window-status-fg brightblue #base0
    set-window-option -g window-status-bg colour0
   #set-window-option -g window-status-attr dim

    set-window-option -g window-status-current-fg red #orange
    set-window-option -g window-status-current-bg colour235 
    set-window-option -g window-status-current-attr bright

    # show session name, window & pane number, date and time on right side of
    # status bar
    #set -g status-right-length 60
    #set -g status-right "#[fg=blue]#S #I:#P #[fg=yellow]:: %d %b %Y #[fg=green]:: %l:%M %p :: #(date -u | awk '{print $4}')::"

Anyone with a solution ?

Thanks !

That's a section I tried to add after not being able to have completion with Tab, I thought it might be taken by tmux, but it just does not have any effect.

Please remember to mark your thread as [Solved] by editing your first post and prepending it to the title.

lucke · 2014-10-19 17:35:10

Maybe there's something in your shell's rc file(s)? Have you tried in a different shell? Have you tried with no tmux.conf?

Kolibry · 2014-10-19 17:52:25

jasonwryan : I'll be glad to do it cause' it would mean I can use tmux the way I want

lucke : It's not working either with zsh. And yes, with no config file, it's working properly. I tried removing parts of the file and didn't find the solution yet

lucke · 2014-10-19 17:54:07

Maybe "set -sg escape-time 1" is the culprit?

If your issue isn't solved, please try and make it clear what progress you have made. Your previous post is ambiguous, as is your last.

What is your current shell? What's in your .rc files? Did you restart the server?

I restarted the server. I also tried to skip "set -sg escape-time 1". My current shell is bash, and I can't tell you what progress I've made because I haven't made any

EDIT : I didn't understand "rc files", I just get it now. Here is my bashrc :

Commenting

bind -n C-i select-window -t :+

out fixes it.

I agree. I think the first step should have been to temporarily rename ~/.tmux.conf and then see if completion works the way it should. Then add back bits of your config until it breaks again.

Kolibry · 2014-10-19 20:53:33

I was doing that (removing one line at a time) but it didn't make any change, apparently because I was reloading the config with tmux command. I tried with killall tmux and restart tmux each time and it appears that the bad line is :

bind -n C-i select-window -t :+

Don't know yet why, but at least I can use tmux now. I'll mark this as solved, thanks

EDIT : Just saw karol's answer, thanks anywayeven if I was a little too late

C-i is a "shortcut" for tab in most shells. I guess tmux can't differentiate between C-i tab, and a regular tab.

it might be an issue with the input method. C-i works fine in tmux when I SSH to my tablet, and tab completion works without issue. I do have another issue related to the input method but I won't derail this thread with that
